    The lordship of Galloway c. 1000 to c. 1250

    No full text
    The recorded history of the lordship under the House of Fergus lasted from only e. 1130 to 1231, but its origins lie in the fusion of the various peoples settled there by c. 1000. A blend of Celtic and Germanic groups created a hybrid culture that had more in common with Man and the Isles than mainland Scotland. Galwegian attitudes to and relationship with Scotland before c. 1130 are unclear, but ties with York and Man had greater value than Scottish claims to overlordship. The emergence of a powerful line of rulers kept the ambitions of the Crown in check, but any divisions in their ranks were exploited by the Scots. Close family links with the Plantagenet kings provided a counterbalance to Scottish interference, but brought English overlordship instead. This had the side-effect of securing the separation of the see of Whithorn from the Scottish Church. Marriage and kinship ties brought the lords political power in Scotland, England and Man, and control of estates outwith the lordship. This in turn led to the closer integration of Galloway into Scotland as its rulers gained high office in the kingdom. Thus the lords developed a dual character as Anglo-Scottish baron and Celtic chieftain. Introduction of Normanised colonists and the development of 'feudal' military tenures fostered this transition and eroded regional particularism. Integration was accelerated by elimination of the male line and partition between heiresses married into Anglo-Norman families. Division broke the power of Galloway, weakened the influence of its new rulers over the Galwegians and gave the Crown the control for which it had long striven

    Operational issues surrounding the use of towing tanks for performance quantification of marine current energy converters

    No full text
    Towing tanks are being utilised far more frequently for the performance quantification of Marine Current Energy Converters (MCECs) due to their relatively low cost and ease of use. In this paper a number of issues are addressed that arose during a series of experimental campaigns investigating the performance of both static and dynamic MCEC models. These include the lack of ambient turbulence, carriage vibration, repeatability, carriage advance speed, vortex-induced-vibration and blockage. Results of experiments are also compared to those in circulating flumes and the relative merits of each type of facility are presented. Recommendations are that specific types of experiments such as wake measurements, power capture etc. are better suited to a specific type of facility although it is acknowledged that facility availability is often the overriding factor. It is difficult to judge previous published and ongoing work but the authors believe that many of the issues quantified in the paper through real world MCEC experimental studies are easy to overlook and could lead to less accurate experimental results. Recommendations for measurement of experimental parameters through the various stages of experimentation are given in order that future studies can be more comprehensive and accurat
